No off-season for our boilers!

Posted Date 11/07/2023

Despite it being the middle of summer, demand for boiler hire remains significant. Even with rising temperatures, there will always be a year-round requirement for replacement boilers – a notion which challenges the common misconception that they are only necessary during the colder months.

There are several factors contributing to the sustained demand for temporary boiler rental. Firstly, boilers are not solely responsible for heating indoor spaces. They also provide hot water for various industrial processes and manufacturing operations. Many businesses, such as restaurants, hotels, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities, rely heavily on hot water for their day-to-day operations. Without efficient boilers, these establishments would face significant disruptions and productivity losses, regardless of the season.

Have you been in a situation where your heat source has suddenly stopped working, or you’ve reached a certain stage of a project before realising that a heating requirement had just slipped your mind?

As construction managers and events planners know all too well, deadlines tend to be tight, and meeting them can be made even more challenging by a range of factors. Although the weather is getting colder, we still regularly receive enquiries from clients who have overlooked their need for heating. It happens a lot more than you think!

Andrews provides M&E contractor with replacement boiler hire

Posted Date 09/09/2020

When one of the UK’s largest mechanical and electrical contractors required a temporary boiler on behalf of a major client, we were given two weeks’ notice to devise and implement a solution. The end user – a prominent government-owned company responsible for maintaining motorway infrastructure – was replacing a faulty boiler at one of their southern depots and needed stand-in equipment while this process was undertaken.

Upon being contacted, we were advised that the boiler upgrade would be carried out in a fortnight’s time. Despite the fact it was a planned project and not one requiring immediate action, we sent our regional expert to site the following day which enabled us to liaise directly with the two parties involved.

By understanding the implications of heating failure and the implications it might have on a corporate event, Andrews Boilers are determined to move quickly and restore this vital provision to ensure the reputation of our customer is never tarnished.

So when one of the country’s senior medical education bodies suffered a complete breakdown in the build-up to their biggest event, Andrews Boilers were called in at short notice and asked to provide a suitable boiler hire solution.

The lack of available space made it difficult for us to deliver and install a 100kW boiler. However, our experts were able to recommend the use of five 22kW temporary electric boilers, which could be fitted discreetly out of hours and ensure our client still had the required heating and hot water capacities.
